SwissGear Luggage – awesome carry on luggage

As you know if you've read my last two posts, we are leaving for our Celebrity Solstice preview cruise Friday a.m.  Because I don't want to check baggage for a three day trip I have resided to stuffing a bagillion things in a carry on bag.  Lucky me, I got to try out my new SwissGear bag.  Well, it's not so new I just haven't tried it yet. 

I realized about 10 hours into packing today that "crap, this bag might be too heavy to carry on!"   Carry on bags can only weigh up to 45lbs.
I ran and got a scale and it showed a weight of about 10 pounds with all of my stuff inside the bag!  I knew that couldn't be right so I got the electronic scale and that scale showed 30 lbs.. which is AMAZING considering the size of the SwissGear bag, and the small village I stuffed inside the bag.  I double checked and sure enough, bag and all, the total weight was right at 30lbs.    Back to the first scale for a second.. I will be weighing myself on that scale from now on!

The SwissGear luggage has so far proven to be solid as a rock, but not too heavy. Granted, I haven't moved it out of my room after packing it, yet.  I did however lift it off the bed and was very surprised at how light it was and when I took it to the scale I used the wheels and the handle and was really impressed with the maneuverability of the luggage.  I feel a little strange talking about luggage in such depth, but SwissGear luggage really is great and I think it will last for years, even with the beatings it may take from my family.
